Structured Append Mode

QR Code offers a mode called structured append (or concatenated) that allows you
to collect data from multiple QR Code symbols and use that data elsewhere. For
example, the components of a sub-assembly can have individual QR Codes and the
QR Code for the entire assembly contains all the data from the i ndividual codes.
This mode also requires certain parameters at the beginning of all batch data.

Syntax

“mode

_id code# #of_div parity, error_cor mask#

data_input char”

mode_id Mode identifier. Use D to indicate the structured append

(or concatenated) mode.

code# Code number of the individual symbol in the

concatenated set. You must use a two-digit number in
decimal.

#of_div Total number of symbols in this concatenated set. You

must use a two-digit number in decimal.

parity Parity byte. You must use a two-digit number in

hexadecimal. There is no standard parity byte.

error_cor Error correction level. Some damaged bar

codes may still be scannable if the error correction is
high enough. Options:
H Ultra high reliability level
Q High reliability level
M Standard level
L High density level

NOTE: As you increase the error correction level, the maximum

number of characters (in the field) decreases.
